Charles-François Daubigny, born February 15, 1817 in Paris where he died February 19, 1878, is a French painter and engraver. Attached to the Barbizon school, he is considered one of the pivotal painters between the Romantic movement and Impressionism. Coming from a family of painters, Charles-François Daubigny was introduced to this art very early on by his father, Edmé-François Daubigny, and his uncle, the miniaturist Pierre Daubigny. He was also a student of Jean-Victor Bertin, Jacques Raymond Brascassat and Paul Delaroche, from whom he quickly became independent.In 1838, he formed a community of artists, a phalanstery, on rue des Amandiers-Popincourt2, with Geoffroy-Dechaume, Lavoignat, Meissonnier, Steinheil, Trimolet, with whom he already expressed his interest in subjects taken from daily life and nature. These artists will work among others for the publisher Léon Curmer, who specializes in works illustrated with vignettes2. Daubigny's first confirmed engravings date from this period.His first stay in 1843 in Barbizon, on rue Grande where the Hôtel Les Pléiades was located, allowed him to work in the heart of nature and changed his way of painting: not far from Paris, the forest of Fontainebleau had become a source of inspiration for Camille Corot from 1822. For these artists staying around Barbizon, the observation of nature was privileged, the landscape as a true subject and, in imitation of their English contemporaries (who had left their mark on the Paris Salon of 1824), they chose to paint on location by setting up their easel facing the raw elements which they absorbed: leaving the confined studio became easier thanks to the invention of the tube of gouache in 1841 and the train, and this very informal "school" was in reality the crucible of a new way of representing the contemporary landscape3.
